00:30And now, here he is, Jimmy Fallon!
01:03That's what we're talking about.
01:04Thank you very much, everybody. Enjoy yourself.
01:06Welcome, everybody. Welcome, welcome, welcome
01:08to The Tonight Show. You're here.
01:11This is it. This is the show we're going to happen.
01:15Well, guys, according to reports,
01:17the Trump administration is close to a $500 million bailout
01:20to save Spirit Airlines.
01:23Yeah. The CEO of Spirit was like,
01:25with $500 million, our planes could have two wings again.
01:29Amazing.
01:31Yet without the bailout, Spirit Airlines was a few days away
01:35from becoming Spirit Halloween.
01:39If the bailout happens, the government will own 90% of Spirit.
01:42Ooh. Yeah.
01:44You'll know Trump owns Spirit Airlines
01:45when you could pay more for extra cankle room.
01:52You'll know Trump owns Spirit Airlines
01:54when they have a list of everyone who flew on the plane
01:56but won't release it.
02:03You know, there's one more. There's one more.
02:06You're going to like it. All right.
02:08You'll know Trump owns Spirit Airlines
02:09when it lands in the Middle East
02:11and doesn't have an exit strategy.
02:12There you go.
02:14That's how you do it. That's how you do it.
02:16That's how you do it.
02:17Come on. That's how you do it.
02:18That's your response. Come on.
02:19That's how you do it.
02:22Well, get this. I saw that Trump's approval rating
02:24just hit a new low of 32%.
02:27Trump was like, is it because?
02:29And everyone was like, yes.
02:31All of that, yeah.
02:34Yep, Trump's numbers are so down,
02:35he just asked Spirit Airlines for a bailout.
02:41Meanwhile, I read that Trump has made a naughty
02:43and nice list of NATO allies he wants to punish
02:45who refuse to support the Iran war.
02:48Yep, it'll backfire when Trump tells France,
02:50you're naughty, and they're like,
02:51oh, yes, we are naughty.
02:54Oh, punish us.
03:00Yeah, this weekend, by the way,
03:01is Melania Trump's birthday,
03:03and the president is excited to celebrate,
03:05but I thought this message he released was a bit odd.
03:07Take a look at this.
03:08This Saturday is my wife Melania's birthday,
03:11but since I have no gift ideas,
03:13just like the Iran ceasefire,
03:15I'm officially extending the deadline,
03:17and that's not all.
03:18I'm also extending the deadline for Mother's Day, a month.
03:21Also, I'm moving my birthday and Father's Day
03:24up to tomorrow, so buy me a gift, no combos.
03:27They call me President Jock Jams,
03:29because when it comes to deadlines,
03:31I like to move it, move it.
03:33Okay, solved it, bye.
03:39Move it.
03:39Move it. Wow.
03:41Wow.
03:42Well, guys, in the past two weeks,

05:13Then Congressman Keith Self said,
05:15No way, same here.
05:18This is what they would do if they didn't have a job.
05:21That's all they would do.
05:23Play stick, play hoop and stick.
05:24He would put on sunglasses and trick people
05:26into thinking he used to do it.
05:28That's his retirement plan.
05:29That's what his retirement plan would do.
05:30And the other guys as well.
05:32If he didn't have a job.
05:32Yeah.
05:33Yep.
05:34Next, Congressman Michael Guest said,

05:42Then Congressman Bill Keating said,
05:44No way, same here.

05:53Then Congressman Michael Rooley said,
05:55No way, same here.

06:23Well, some business news.
06:24Apple announced that after 15 years,
06:26Tim Cook is stepping down as CEO
06:28and will be replaced by John Ternus.
06:31It was easy to shut Cook down.
06:33They just pressed on both sides of his head
06:34at the same time.
06:39Yep, Cook will be replaced as CEO by John Ternus.
06:42And annoyingly, Ternus has a completely different charger.
06:48Come on.
06:49You've got to be kidding me.
06:51You don't have to...
06:53You guys see this?

07:36What the does that mean?
07:43And finally, a hot air balloon carrying 13 people

09:53Charlize and I will take turns facing our backs to the curtain.
09:56Behind the curtain will be something
09:57neither of us has seen before.
09:59Could be people, objects, anything.
10:01Once the curtain opens and you pick up your card,
10:04you'll have 45 seconds to try and get the other person
10:07to guess what's behind them.
10:08You can say anything you want. You can use gestures.
10:11You just can't say any of the words on your card.
10:14Okay? It's fun.
10:15Charlize, you'll be guessing first.
10:20Let's get into position.
10:21I have to guess first?
10:22Yes, you're a guess first. Here we go.
10:24Look at this. Look at this technology.
10:26Look at this technology.
10:28This cost...
10:30That rotating stage cost us $18 million.
10:35Charlize, let's open the curtain and see what's behind you.

11:16A bow?
11:17Yes.

11:19And there's a fruit on top of someone's head.
11:22Oh!
11:22Betsy Ross is shooting an apple with an arrow off somebody's head?
11:26Kind of.
11:27No, but the person she's hitting it off of apparently has a number one album.

19:27I don't really ask, like, hey, have you seen
19:29Um, they, my, my fourteen-year-old came home
19:33The other day from school
19:36And she's just like, she has this look on her face
19:38Like she just smelled a fart at all times now
19:40It's like the teenage thing, you know, like everything's annoying
19:42Yeah
19:42And she's just like, she's like
19:45What were you doing all day?
19:47It's like, I was working
19:48She goes, what is your work?
19:52I said, I'm making movies
19:53She's like, but you were just here all day
19:56I was like, yeah
19:57I was on the phone and I had Zoom meetings
19:59I'm going to the production office
20:00She's like, I went to school all day
20:05Yeah
20:06I did something
20:07Yeah
20:07You were on the phone?
20:09You were not making movies here in the house?
20:10Yeah, no
20:11Like, no idea
20:12They think I'm in bed all day
20:14It takes a lot of work to make these movies
20:16Yes
20:17And to be Charlize Theron
20:19Come on, ladies and gentlemen
20:19This is the one and only
20:21We won't win Oscars
20:22We don't give them away
20:25It's like, neutralizes it
20:27I get beat up by the fourteen-year-old
20:28Then I come here and you guys are nice
20:30Yeah, see, yeah
20:31We, yeah, you get the humble
20:33You know, we've known each other a long time
20:3526 years ago
20:36We first did SNL together
20:38You were Marilyn Monroe
20:39I was Joe DiMaggio
20:41Do you remember?
20:42I do remember that so vividly
20:44And very fondly
20:45You were so nice
20:47Oh, really?
20:47Yeah, I was so nervous
20:48I'm, like, actually not really good with that stuff
20:51And you were so kind
20:52I remember that I had to wear, like, platform shoes
20:54Because you're so tall
20:56And I had to be the same height
20:58I remember your teeth kept falling out
21:04I was wearing fake teeth
21:06Yes
21:06Oh, yes!
21:07My teeth kept falling out
21:08During my lines
21:09And I was, like, trying to do my honor
21:10Oh, my God
21:11You kept, like, shoving it in your mouth
21:14I could not keep it
21:15Sorry about that
21:16Oh, no, it was amazing
21:19Yeah, we're doing hard work
21:22Oh, yes, we were
21:23Yes, yes
21:23I want to talk about Apex
21:25Congratulations on this
21:26Thank you
21:26This is a thrilling, wild ride
21:28A great movie
21:29Super fun
21:31Thrilling, scary
21:32How do we set up the movie
21:34And who you play?
21:36It is a thriller, action, psychological thriller
21:41It's, you know, sitting on the edge of your seat
21:44Not being able to breathe for about an hour and 40
21:46And it's a good time
21:49I mean, seriously, here's a shot of you
21:50This is a scene
21:51You're rock climbing
21:52Yeah
21:53You're a rock climber in this
21:54Yeah, my character is a rock climber
21:56And she goes into the Australian outback
21:59To kind of have a bit of a
22:02She's emotionally kind of torn
22:04And so she has to kind of go and find herself again
22:06Yeah
22:06And she does with a serial killer
22:08Yeah
22:09By the way, he's fantastic
22:10Oh, Taron Edgerton
22:12Taron Edgerton is great in this
22:14Yeah, he's my buddy in this
22:16Yeah, you shot on location in Australia
22:18We did
22:19It's gorgeous, huh?
22:20Oh, beautiful
22:20Oh, my God
22:21It's where you would imagine a serial killer would chase you
22:24It's that gorgeous
22:25It's that gorgeous
22:27It would shock you
22:27It's just so isolated
22:29There's like
22:29We had to hike an hour into location
22:32Then we would shoot all day
22:33I'd climb a whole mountain
22:35Then we would hike all the way out again
22:38Yeah, yeah, yeah
22:39It's very far
22:40Yeah, but also
22:41Isn't there
22:41I love Australia
22:43I've never been
22:43But I'm afraid
22:44Because I think there's like spiders and stuff
22:46Yes, oh
22:47And sharks
22:48Yes
22:49Like in the pool
22:50Swimming pool
22:51They have them
22:52In Australia
22:53There's sharks in your pool
22:54You've got to be careful
22:56Yeah, and snakes
22:57Getting your information mixed up
22:58And snakes
22:58Oh, my God
22:59So many snakes
23:00There are snakes, right?
23:01So many snakes
23:02We have like 17 snake handlers at all times
23:05You did?
23:06Yes, we have a lot
23:07And then during the day
23:07You could like walk by them
23:08And peek in the bag
23:09And see all the snakes
23:10They've been catching
23:11It's right there
23:11Where we're shooting
23:12What do they do with the snakes in the bag?
23:14So they dump them
23:15On another part of the wilderness
23:18And then we ended up shooting
23:21In that part of the wilderness
23:23Because nobody told the snake wrangler
23:25That we were going to shoot there
23:27So they dumped like 400 snakes over there
23:29And I had to do a running shot
23:31And they made me go so far
23:33Into like this big wide shot of me running
23:35And everything goes quiet
23:36Camera's about to roll
23:37And I just hear
23:40I know
23:40Stop
23:41I look back
23:43But did you
23:44What were you supposed to do?
23:45I did everything wrong
23:46What are you supposed to do?
23:47You're supposed to just be very calm
23:49Very still
23:50Yes
23:50I screamed so loud
23:52I ran so fast
23:54It ran so far
23:54Yeah, you do the opposite
23:55Of everything you're supposed to do
23:56Everything
23:56Well, they could have used that shot
23:58In the movie
23:59Because, yeah
23:59They were very concerned
24:01Yes
24:01You guys are going to love this
24:02I want to show a clip
24:03Here's Charlize Theron in Apex
24:05Take a look
24:23Mom!
24:25Mom!
24:26Mom!
24:34Oh, my God.
24:59Charlize Theron, everybody.
25:01Apex begins streaming on Netflix this Friday.
25:05We'll be right back with more tonight, everybody.
25:07Stick around.
25:10I'm inflamed like a phoenix, straining and carrying the weight of my brain.
25:13A genius, knowing I'm so insane.
25:15Only thumb is the greener.
25:24Our next guest stars in and executive produces the series Boston Blue,
25:30which airs every Friday at 10 p.m. on CBS
25:32and streams on Paramount+.
25:34Please welcome Donnie Wahlberg!
25:59Thank you for doing that.
26:01Thank you!
26:02That's Donnie Wahlberg right there.
26:04Come on.
26:05That's how you do it.
26:07That is how you do it.
26:08Thank you, thank you, thank you!
26:11Oh, my God.
26:13It is great to see you.
26:14Thank you for doing that.
26:15The sixth new kid.
26:17Yeah.
26:17Yeah, right.
26:18Done.
26:19Thank you for doing the dance.
26:21Thank your audience.
26:22Thank you, Roots.
26:23Thank you, everybody.
26:25Is it like when they put up the bat signal,
26:27your body just goes into the dance?
26:29You got to do it?
26:30You know, I got to be honest.
26:31As I get older, I enjoy it more.
26:35Is that right?
26:36When I was younger, like, I'd go to a Celtics game or something,
26:38and they'd start playing.
26:39Oh, oh.
26:40And I'd be like, ah, I just want to watch the game.
26:42And, like, someone would scream from this side of the balcony,
26:45and someone would call me a loser.
26:47Donnie, you're a loser!
26:48You know, this side.
26:49That's great.
26:49And as I get older, I really embrace it.
26:51I really love it.
26:51Yeah, come on.
26:53You're the best, yeah.
26:55You've done it, man.
26:56You're it.
26:58Your debut album turned 40 years old this month.
27:02Wow.
27:05Did you ever think...
27:08Did you ever think this kid would become such a big deal?
27:13Look at this.
27:13Not with that sweater.
27:15Yeah.
27:15No, he's so cool.
27:16No, it's C3.
27:17You can see my chest, and I'm, like, 14.
27:19It's just weird.
27:20Yeah.
27:21It was, uh...
27:22Here we are 40 years later, it's bigger than ever.
27:24I believed the band would be successful, if for no other reason.
27:27Maurice Starr, who discovered us, discovered New Edition,
27:31and they went on to huge success, and he just kept saying,
27:33let's go, you're going to be huge, you're going to be huge.
27:34And we're like, all right.
27:35Yeah, you're a little kid.
27:36How sick does that mean?
27:37This already is so exciting.
27:38We're in a hotel room.
27:39Yeah, and, uh, and, yes, it's, I'm blown away every day that we're still doing it,
27:44that fans still show up, that I'm sitting here.
27:47Like, none of this, uh, it never gets old to me.
27:51I still kind of pinch myself.
27:52I know from those days, we grew up with nothing.
27:55You know, we had nothing.
27:56All of us.
27:57Nobody in the group.
27:57We all came from very humble beginnings.
28:00And to have succeeded at all was a miracle.
28:03But to be here, it's a blessing that beyond...
28:05Starr, you have a Las Vegas residency.
28:07Yeah, yeah.
28:09Here you are with Elvis.
28:11With Vegas Elvis.
28:12Fantastic Elvis right there.
28:14Uh, what's that like?
28:16Vegas is incredible.
28:17Our fans are coming from all around the world.
28:19The show is spectacular.
28:21I hear that it's great.
28:22Yeah, it's really, really good.
28:24And we're just, we're blessed.
28:26We're going to update it now, because we've been there for a year doing it.
28:28We're going to add some new stuff.
28:29I know there's some blockheads in the audience.
28:31I saw them during the other segment.
28:33We're going to...
28:34Shout out to the blockheads.
28:35That's right.
28:36We're going to fight some of the...
28:37Yeah, we love you.
28:39Let's talk about your new show.
28:40Congratulations on this.
28:41Boston Blue.
28:42It's fantastic.
28:43It's a spinoff of Blue Bloods.
28:45And this time, your character moves to Boston.
28:47Yeah.
28:47And you're famously from Boston.
28:48I will say this, by the way.
28:50As I went to say hi to you before the show, in your dressing room,
28:52you were drinking a Dunkin'.
28:54Yeah.
28:54I go, that is so funny.
28:55And we had donuts, too.
28:56We had actually Dunkin' donuts.
28:57It's not fake.
28:58He's really, he's the most realist person I know.
29:01And I was like, I love it.
29:02But on the show, you play your character.
29:04Danny's from Brooklyn.
29:05Yes.
29:06So I'm a Bostonian playing a New Yorker, moving to Boston.
29:10If you don't win the Emmy, then I don't know what we're doing wrong, buddy.
29:13I'll settle for a Blockbuster Video Award at this point.
29:16But I mean, how do you, do you slip into the Boston accent by mistake?
29:20A little bit.
29:21It happens now more so than before,
29:23because I was surrounded by New Yorkers
29:25when I was playing Danny Reagan in New York.
29:27So I was constantly on my toes,
29:28and they'd laugh at me if Boston ever slipped out.
29:31And they would torment me, by the way,
29:32if, like, the Celtics lost to the Knicks
29:34or the Patriots lost to the Giants.
29:35That's what we do to each other.
29:36I know, it's brutal.
29:37But this show is a giant hit already.
29:39It's already been renewed for season two.
29:41So congratulations.
29:42Boston Blue.
29:43Great name, too.
29:44Boston Blue is great.
29:46We just, first things first,
29:48we have the most incredible cast.
29:49Yeah.
29:49My partner, Sonequa Martin-Green, incredible.
29:52Gloria Rubin, Ernie Hudson, Marcus Scribner,
29:55Mika Amundsen, Maggie Lawson.
29:57It's just, it's incredible.
29:58And we're having such a good time.
29:59The writers are great, too.
30:00The writers are great.
30:01And this Friday's episode is unbelievable.
30:04We have Jefferson White from Yellowstone
30:07is playing a hostage taker.
30:10And it's just, it's an unbelievable episode.
30:12So we're just really excited.
30:13It was hard to follow in the footsteps of Blue Bloods.
30:15Of course.
30:16And a lot of people thought, oh, it's a no-brainer.
30:18It was like, yeah, but if it fails, you know,
30:20we'll never hear the end of it.
30:21And so we're very relieved,
30:22and we really made it our own show.
30:24And I love the cast.
30:25I love the writers.
30:25We're blessed beyond belief.
30:27And it's a wonderful time.
30:28You got another hit on your hands, bud.
30:30I want to show a clip.
30:31Here's Donnie Wahlberg in Boston Blue.
30:34Take a look at this.
30:35Sean wouldn't stop talking about it,
30:37so I caved and joined.
30:39You joined TikTok on purpose?
30:41I did.
30:42And it's low-key incredible.
30:44Low-key?
30:44If you start shooting TikToks and MCU,
30:46I'm going to send you back to Brooklyn.
30:48We would do some good videos.
30:49Together, you and I.
30:50I'm just saying.
30:51By the way, you know what skibbity means?
30:53No, I don't, and neither should you.
30:55We've got to change with the times.
30:56Get along with the people that were policing.
30:58Danny Reagan, Gen Alpha Whisperer.
31:01Yeah, I like that.
31:03Come on.
31:04Donnie Wahlberg, everybody.
31:05You can catch a new episode of Boston Blue
31:08every Friday at 10 p.m. on CBS and Paramount+.
31:11Morgan Neville joins us after the break.
31:14Stick around, everybody.
31:30Our next guest is an Oscar-winning documentary filmmaker.
31:35His latest movie is called Lorne,
31:36and it's in theaters now.
31:38Everyone, please welcome Morgan Neville.
31:50Come on.
31:51That's no time.
31:52Come on, now.
31:54All right.
31:54Oh, my gosh.
31:56Morgan Neville, welcome to the show.
31:57You're one of my favorite directors,
31:59and we actually met before.
32:01We did.
32:02You interviewed me for Lorne, for the documentary.
32:04I did. You're in it.
32:05I'm in the documentary.
32:06I know that was my favorite part.
32:07You're great.
32:07Yeah, thank you.
32:09You do a doc on our pal, the great Lorne Michaels,
32:12and I got to say, that is a tough gig.
32:15It's incredibly hard.
32:17I mean, it's like trying to make a film
32:18about The Wizard of Oz, you know?
32:20It kind of is.
32:21He's an inscrutable character,
32:23and I had to scrut him somehow.
32:25Yeah.
32:26He doesn't like talking about himself.
32:28He's very humble, and he's just like, yeah,
32:30he just wants everything around him to kind of work.
32:32How did you find out that you were going to do
32:34this documentary?
32:34I don't even know how it happened.
32:37I never pitched him on making this film.
32:38He never agreed to make the film.
32:41But somehow it happened.
32:43I mean, really what happened is, you know,
32:45going back before SNL 50, before the 50th anniversary,
32:48years ago, three years ago, he said,
32:51well, let's meet and talk about documentary ideas.
32:54He said, come to my office.
32:55It was a show week.
32:57Nine o'clock, let's have a meeting.
32:58So I go into Lorne's office, nine o'clock,
33:01and there are 16 people in the room.
33:03And he said, so what are your ideas?
33:05And Higgins was in the room, all the senior writers,
33:08everybody.
33:09And I just said, okay, I stand up.
33:11I start pitching all these ideas,
33:12and I'm just going and going.
33:14And I finish, and I sit down,
33:16and Lorne doesn't say anything.
33:18So then I said, so any thoughts, any ideas?
33:21Yeah.
33:22And he turns to one of his producers and says,
33:23Caroline, what did you think?
33:25And she said, well, I thought there were some good things.
33:27Like, she didn't want to get called on.
33:29She tosses the hot potato to the next person.
33:31And then finally, the meeting just ends,
33:33and I walk out with Katie Hochmeyer,
33:35the head of NBC Late Night.
33:36And I said, what just happened?
33:37She said, oh, he likes you.
33:40So I have this story that all the cast members tell
33:43about getting hired and not knowing you got hired.
33:46Yeah.
33:46But you did such a great job.
33:48I mean, he's such an interesting guy.
33:50And when you're doing this,
33:52when you're talking to all these legends,
33:54you're talking to Chris Rock,
33:55you're talking to Mike Myers,
33:57do you get, I don't know,
34:00you don't get intimidated,
34:01but do you?
34:02Do you go like, well, I'm talking to these comedies.
34:03I mean, they love talking about Lorne.
34:06You know, they're not talking about themselves.
34:07They're talking about somebody who,
34:09for most of them, completely changed their life.
34:12I mean, you're one of those people.
34:13Completely changed my life.
34:14I mean, NBC didn't really even want me to host Late Night.
34:18And this is true.
34:19And Lorne said, you have to do it with Jimmy.
34:22If you don't, then I'm not doing it.
34:23That's amazing.
34:24And he really went to bat for me.
34:26I would not have his time.
34:27He's the best.
34:29For so many people.
34:31Oh, yeah.
34:31Conan.
34:32Conan O'Brien.
34:33You know, so many people.
34:35So many people.
34:35He gets their back.
34:36He's loyal.
34:37I think you captured him so perfectly.
34:39It's just, everything about him is great.
34:42Did he get, did he see the film?
34:44Because I don't think he's going to.
34:45He told me the entire time he made this film, he was never going to watch the film.
34:49Yes.
34:49He always says, I'm never going to.
34:50I don't read anything.
34:51I don't watch anything.
34:52He doesn't watch this.
34:53No, after it airs, it's the end of it.
34:54So we had a premiere recently here in New York.
34:57And there was a seat held open for him.
35:00And I didn't think he was going to watch it.
35:02After the movie ended, people started coming up to me and saying,
35:04Lorne watched the film.
35:05Lorne watched the film.
35:07And so it blew my mind.
35:08So there was a party afterwards.
35:10And Lorne's in this corner booth.
35:11And I walk up to him and he nods at me and says, good.
35:16Take the W.
35:17That is a five-star review.
35:19Take the W.
35:20That's a win right there.
35:21I want to show everyone a clip.
35:23Here's a look at Morgan Neville's documentary, Lorne.
35:26Enjoy.
35:27The questions you want to ask Lorne, I would ask other people.
35:31And then they'll give you a bunch of different answers.
35:33And then you can cut them together to funny music.
35:36Exactly.
35:37Do you know anything about his childhood?
35:43Suburb of Toronto.
35:44Uh-huh.
35:44Right?
35:45That's Canada.
35:46He liked hockey.
35:48Liked hockey.
35:49A lot of, like, outdoor hockey kind of stuff.
35:53Fishing and, you know, stuff like that.
35:56If you told me he made maple syrup, I would believe you.
35:58I guess I don't know what his dad did.
36:02We should ask him.
36:04We should, like, meet Lorne.
36:06Let's talk to him.
36:08Yeah, you should meet Lorne.
36:09Yeah.
36:10It's fantastic.
36:11Congratulations.

37:05You get in your car, and I give in to mine.
37:11You're thinking about me, and I'm thinking about you.
37:17And we can go home alone, like we always do.
37:22What if we don't?
37:25What if we don't?
37:28What if we stop fighting, but we know we don't want?
37:33We might pretend how far we let go.
37:40What if we don't?
37:46There's always a fear of going there now.
37:53Things getting weird when it don't work out.
37:59This kind of thing can't stop once it starts.
38:04We might end up breaking each other's hearts.
38:11What if we don't?
38:13What if we don't?
38:16What if we stop fighting, but we know we don't want?
38:22We might regret how far we let it go.
38:27What if we don't?
38:31What if we don't?
38:32I don't want to overthink it.
38:35I've got to kiss you right now.
38:37Baby, I'm tired of thinking about you.
38:53Oh, what if we don't, what if we don't, what if we stop fighting what we know we won't want,
39:07we might regret how far we let it go.
